ADeath Trap,

The following incident occurred on board
the American man-of-war Alert, which has
visited this port in the past.
WASHINGTON, May 16.-A telegram received
at the Navy Department two weeks ago
stated that Lieutenant NJ. K. Schwenk had
accidentally shot himself while on duty as an
officer of the watch on the Alert. Mail adj
vices received to-day put more serious light
on the matter.
While on duty on the vessel Lieutenant
Schwenk stopped to pick up a revolver which
proved to haye bsen tied in such a manner
that when lifted a bowline slipped over the
trigger, causing q discharge. Commander
Graham reports that there can be no doubt
that there was Il plan to assassinate some
officer of the vessel, and that he has ordered
a searching investigation. Lieut.. SohBenk
was seriously wounded in his left wrist, and
blood-poisoning is feared.

COLLAR AND CUFF BAG.
Convenient and Pretty ReceptacIes Made
Out of Fancy Turkish Towels.

Convenient and Pretty Receptacles Made
Out of Fancy Turkish Towels.
Almost every woman has felt the
need of separate bag for collars and
cuffs, especially if her husbands are
sent to the laundry, as they SO often
are, and must therefore be kept sepa-
rate from the general family wash. Or
if not needed for this purpose, still
small and ornamental bag substantial
enough to be thoroughly useful comes
in handy for the handkerchiefs and
laces that require more delicate hand
ling than Bridget's.
Such bag may be made out of the
fancy Turkish towels to be had any
where for twenty-five cents a piece.
Those with blue, pink or yellow
grounds. and a brocaded pattern of
raised white upon them, are especially
pretty. The pink and blue will wash,
as the writer knows, but the yellow she
has not tried. The bags are made by
doubling the towel, and scanning the
edges to within four inches of the top,
not including the fringe. These flaps
ere then turned over so as to make q
sort of little lambrequin, and a line of
stitching put about third of an inch
from the top, thus forming hem in
which to place the draw-strings.
Next run number three ribbon
through the hem, so that it will draw
from both sides, and finish the bag by a
large bow of ribbon upon the front, just
below the fringe. Pink and blue rib
bons, mixed, are pretty upon either a
blue or pink bag.
To wash, remove the ribbons and
press out the draw-string. The bow
will not need attention for long time
if properly made. Soak blue towels ir
strong brine, say half cup of salt to
quart of water, an hour or two before
washing. Do not boil. Pink towels
should be soaked at least an hour
in vinegar and water, half of each, and
enough to cover. If in the soaking any
part should be left dry, it will generally
be found to have faded. Pink or blue
goods of any description may be
washed without losing color in this
manner. For very delicate pink, pure
vinegar should be used.
These bags look well hung on the
nail to which the bedroom curtains are
tied, their delicate color showing pref
tily against white curtains in particu-
lar. Marion Foster Washburne, iss Good
